Network Client is a Windows software that was designed to enable remote connections in legacy operating systems from Microsoft. The integrated client module allows users to access shared directories on a local network. Please note that Network Client is discontinued and no longer supported by the developer. A modern version of it is included by default in all versions of Windows.
